  1. Wellness, Balance and Nutrition Murphee Hayes Whitney Point Central School District Director of Athletics, Health & Physical Education

  2. Reflection • Please briefly describe a stressful situation in athletics, one in which you or others felt a lack of control, disappointed, unhappy, upset or angry. • Who or what were the sources of the stress? • What were the physical or emotional responses to the situation?

  3. Objectives • To recognize the signs of stress, fatigue, overscheduling, lack of sleep, poor nutrition, the demands of school and work. • To identify the impact of chronic stressors on athletics and its effects on student athletes, teams, coaches and athletic directors. • To develop strategies to help all cope and manage these stressors. • To create positive solutions to have optimal physical, mental and emotional health.

  4. Definitions of Stress • Stress body’s response to the perception of loss of control resulting from an adverse situation or person • Acute severe, intense stress resulting from exposure to trauma or violence • Distress chronic high stress sustained over time is toxic to our brain and body

  7. How can you reverse the effects of stress? The stress we experience is our reaction to a perceived loss of control over an adverse situation • Increase the control and our stress goes down • Decrease the control and our stress goes up

  8. State of mind is perhaps the single greatest factor that affects performance.

  9. Fixed vs Growth Mindset In a fixed mindset people/students believe their basic abilities, their intelligence, their talents, are just fixed traits. They have a certain amount and that’s that, and then their goal becomes to look smart all the time and never look dumb. In a growth mindsetpeople/students understand that their talents and abilities can be developed through effort, good teaching and persistence. They don’t necessarily think everyone’s the same or anyone can be Einstein, but they believe everyone can get smarter if they work at it.—Carol Dweck, Stanford University

  10. Mindsets- After a Stressful Situation FIXED GROWTH Resilience; I feel renewed energy I will learn from my mistakes to improve Effort is a positive, since I can control how much I apply I can be better the next time I try this • Feel helpless and want to give up • Avoid future tasks similar to this one • Invest little or no effort since I will not likely succeed • I might consider cheating, if need be

  11. Assessing Mindset Eduardo Briceño, Co-Founder & CEO Mindset Works

  12. Our MINDSET Matters Mindset= the established set of attitudes/beliefs held by someone

  14. Power of YET! • When I face a challenge, or even a failure, I can tell myself or teacher others to think and say that “I have not learn how to do this YET.” • Think about the possibilities. • Every time you hear a voice saying: • “You are not______.” • Add YET: “I am not ______ YET.”
